OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults)
The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) in the Catholic Church is the way in which a person encounters Christ, learns about Christianity, grows in their relationship with God, and becomes a follower of Jesus Christ. OCIA is a journey which involves intellectual formation, moral conversion, and spiritual growth. Participants are gradually introduced to the richness of the Catholic Faith, the celebration of the Sacraments, the lives of the Saints, and are initiated into the Christian way of life.
For more information or if you are interested in becoming Catholic, click here or contact Fr. Craig Kinneberg at 303-781-6093 x 106 or vicar@holynamedenver.org.
